But he made a statement in Game 3 by scoring big and giving his fans something to talk about. The Klaw opened his talons and swooped the Nuggets out of the game. He dropped 23 points, 6 assists, and 14 rebounds in the game.

He had 9 field goals with an accuracy of 47.4% and played for a total of 42 minutes. However, this one move from him became the talk of the town, leaving everything behind.

Kawhi Leonard and his finger touch for the Clippers

The Klaw denied Jamal Murray a dunk as he came from nowhere, cruising like a tiger wearing a Clippers’ jersey. He jumped and stretched his hands so long, so high, that Jamal could not convert his shot.

Kawhi’s middle-finger got the job done by denying the ball the trajectory, and this picture became an iconic one for everyone to remember.

Even Paul George who scored an astounding 32 points, said after the game, “That’s an extra long middle finger — it kept growing or something.”
